When you upgraded to PPro 6.0.5 your “supported GPU list.txt” might have gotten over-written. Check there and add the GTX 480 if need be. I recall something similar happening to me. I recall it was around the time I applied a cuda update as well.

[Morten Ranmar] “Now in the latest upgrade, there are less crashes, but border pixels in the viewer are incorrectly rendered, with flickering noise. Upon returnng to Premiere the noise disappears again.”
I am assuming you are on SG CC v7.2?
I saw some notes here regarding Macs: https://blogs.adobe.com/movingcolors/2013/12/12/speedgrade-cc-7-2-update/In the notes it states:
* Enabled: NVIDIA OpenCL (Mac) GPU acceleration is now available for OS X 10.8.5 and higher. This provides better feedback and real-time grading update when applying color adjustments.
* Note: GPU acceleration for NVIDIA CUDA and AMD OpenCL are not currently available on the Mac platform.
I have CS6 and am planning to try out SG soon. So I can’t really give any insight, but, might it be a problem of the Cuda implementation in PPro CC (works well) and OpenCL in SG CC (perhaps doesn’t work well)…? I am just guessing here.

[Morten Ranmar] “it also presents some redraw problems with Speedgrade.”
Can you elaborate? Where does the issue lay? Drivers, GPU, SpeedGrade?

I noticed the other day it was in stock at B&H. The Mac version used to be hard to find.

You math is correct on the shutter angle. PPro can’t do the effect, but, AE can: Timewarp in after effects

with PPro CS6 on a Mac 10.8.4 using the “Supported cuds cards.txt” hack from Studio 1 I have successfully used a
GTX 470 1.25 GB,
GTX 570 1.5 GB,
GTX 580 3 GBand had no render or display issues. So you don’t need a Quattro card.
I think the minimum might be 1GB of VRAM for CS6, not sure about CC. It could be as simple as your card doesn’t have enough ram to drive what you are doing.
EDIT: Yup that’s probably it, the 560Ti doesn’t even show up as a supported PC card. I’d stick with an GTX _70 or higher card

Since you mentioned “Digital Rain” That’s a term I am familiar with from also shooting with a hacked GH2. Sounds like a combo of PPro CS6 and the hack used.
The work around is like in FCP7 to transcode everything before editing (or transcode and replace if already edited).
Discussions here:
https://www.personal-view.com/talks/discussion/6094/diagonal-rain-appears-using-gh2-premiere-pro-cs6-without-a-hack/p1
https://www.personal-view.com/talks/discussion/3804/strange-pulsing-diagonal-pattern-in-gh2-hack-footage-aka-rain/p1Luckily, I have never had the problem myself.
Note if transcoding and relinking:
The redundant AVCHD file naming convention can really screw you up with PPro’s non containg folder aware search method. Ex: If A cam 0000.mts goes offline PPro will ask “Where’s 0000.mts”” and if more than one 0000.mts is missing it will replace all with that single 0000.mts, even if the 2nd files was from another day or a 2nd camera on the same day.FCP7 would ask “Where’s 2013/11/1>A cam>0000.mov” so it was easy to feed it the correct files when relinking. PPro (on the mac at least) is not aware what the containing folders were.
My personal workaround involves using a small app called “name changer” to change the names of the .mts files and “pre-pend” them with date/project/camera + 0000.mts This breaks the XMP metadata function, but, makes for headache free editing if the source files get moved (say if you’re on a laptop with an external drive for media files).
In your case, if you needed to finish in CS6, I’d back up the project file, transcode the files and give them prepended names as I mentioned above. Then with PPro open, go move one batch (or SD camera chip) of AVCHD files at a time. Say if you shot with 2 cameras, each with one chip, move just the A camera. PPro will ask where’s 0000.mts and you can relink it to your “2014_1_3_Project_A1_0000.mov” and check that everything shows up clearly, save the project, then do it for the B cam, check, save, and so on, until every “chip” from the project source files is replaced with your transcoded files. Always double check.

I recently had the bad experience of trying to make 1080i material look good on DVD (480i). It looks good until you put it on a newer flatscreen TV, then everything bad about it gets amplified, until you sit a a decent distance from the TV.
OTOH 23.976P footage looks great when making a DVD.
If you can talk them into BluRay (you should charge more for it) Encore is a great way to go.
Toast (Mac) has an options to make simple DVDs and an advanced feature to put 20 minutes of HD material on to DVD media that can be played back only on a BluRay player (but, I have never used it).
